Lucas remained resolute despite Adrian's mounting concern.
"I'm sorry, but I can't disclose the specifics. It's extremely sensitive information," he reiterated, his tone resolute.
As he made to leave in a hurried manner, Adrian, propelled by a sense of mounting concern, rose from his seat in a swift motion. "Wait! You can't just leave like this," Adrian insisted, stepping in front of Lucas and blocking his exit. "Can you at least give me a hint about what Ryley wants to show me about my grandpa?"
His tone resonated with frustration and worry, his eyes beseeching Lucas for even the slightest clue.
"Please, don't keep me in the dark like this. It's not funny," Adrian pleaded, hoping to glean some understanding amid the swirling confusion and apprehension.
As Lucas prepared to respond to Adrian's plea, the sudden intrusion of a car drew everyone's attention.
In a swift motion, a towering figure emerged, his eyes filled with a simmering rage.
